The Handbook of Board Governance

ebook

Explore the practical realities of corporate governance in public, private, and not-for-profit environments

In the newly revised third edition of The Handbook of Board Governance: A Comprehensive Guide for Public, Private and Not for Profit Board Members, award-winning professor and lawyer Dr. Richard Leblanc delivers a comprehensive overview of all relevant topics in corporate governance. Each chapter is written by a subject matter expert working in academia or industry and illuminates a different area of board governance: value creation and the strategic role of the Board, risk governance and oversight, board composition and diversity, the role of the board chair, blind spots and trendspotting in the boardroom, audit committee efficacy, and more.

This latest edition contains updated coverage of a wide variety of key topics, including:

  • Governing, auditing, and working from home, as well as conducting virtual and hybrid meetings
  • New and necessary skillsets for directors, including contemporary environmental, social, and governance considerations for firms
  • Diversity, equity, and inclusion issues impacting boards and firms, as well as the risks posed by corruption, organized crime, and cyber-crime
  • An essential resource for board members and directors of organizations of all kinds, The Handbook of Board Governance is also an important source of information for managers and executives seeking greater understanding of the role of the board in the day-to-day and long-term management of a modern firm.
